Publication of REIT Circular to Shareholders
As announced on 16 March 2007, Big Yellow Group Plc (the "Company") has
converted to a UK Real Estate Investment Trust ("REIT") with effect from 15
January 2007. In order to try and avoid certain tax charges that can arise as a
result of being a REIT, a number of amendments are required to the Company's
Articles of Association.
Accordingly, the Company announces that it has published, and will today be
posting a circular to shareholders (the "Circular") explaining the conversion of
the Big Yellow Group to a REIT and convening an Extraordinary General Meeting ("
EGM") to be held at 20 Moorgate, London EC2R 6DA on 4 May 2007 at 10.00am. The
purpose of the EGM is to approve the required amendments to the Company's
Articles of Association.
Two copies of the Circular have been sent to the Financial Services Authority
for publication through the Document Viewing Facility of the UK Listing
Authority at 25 The North Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London E14 5HS. The Document
Viewing Facility is open from 9.00am to 5.30pm on every weekday except bank
holidays.
Copies of the Circular are available free of charge from the Company Secretary,
Big Yellow Group Plc, Unit 2 The Deans, Bridge Road, Bagshot, Surrey GU19 5AT.
The Circular will also be available on the Company's website at
